NOTD first time crackling

So it's not that I got bored of my Lunar Eclipse, I just REALLY wanted to play with an untried crackle :D Enter, China Glaze Crackle Lightning Bolt. I like how dang white it is, but I'm not 100% sure if I did it correctly. I heard you have to glop on more than a normal thin layer, so I tried, but did I under or over glop after all? You be the judge (and feel free to toss any tips you think I need my way, please!). It was a shame to cover such a polish, but the dark blue looks good underneath the cracks, I think. I was in a hurry when I did it, so excuse the messy application.

You would think with such a new found love for these NPs I would be a bit more careful with them -_^
